When you want to load photos I "Resize" mine before I put them into a thread. My photos end up about postcard size.
Just do it!
Kind regards Rod

Try rotating a copy the right way up and also changing its name ( rename it ). I just added an "a" to the original name on one of my pictures giving me trouble and it then loaded good .

Open the photo on the computer and edit it slightly, maybe cut a corner a tiny bit then save it and when the altered version is uploaded it will be the right way up. Basically what needs to happen is the original metadata file needs to be altered to lose the whatever causes the problem. Others can explain it better than me, I just know it fixes the issue.

I suppose I could ask everyone to rotate their pc screens
it takes all the fun out of it
I belong to some photography sites and I'm a keen photographer, this seems to be the only site where it happens

I'm getting closer, I get the feeling that the upload facility doesn't like photo's in portrait mode
so today I shot the same photos in landscape mode
now they are all upside down
tomorrow I'll pretend I'm left handed when I take the same photo's

If I recall this correctly, the forum software only does this with photos above a certain size. It's a bug in the forum software and not specific to this WW forum. I've experienced it on other forums that use the same software.
You need to do any of what has been suggested above or...
I just load the photo into a Paint program and rotate one way, then rotate it back to the way I had it, then save.Stay sharp and stay safe!
